The men behind LAPP-PRO asked permission to use my song "Ready" as background music for their website featuring their light art performance photography, which I gladly accepted.

I am still alive, as people have questioned. I reserve the right to be enigmatic and reclusive as an artist. No official announcements on music, but I always write songs throughout my life just not necessarily bring them up to production quality for a release. Please do not take it personally if I do not get around to approving your comment, I do not go through them regularly. If you enjoy my music I appreciate your support by ordering on itunes or through my website http://jamesdstark.com.

I haven't sold any CD's through my website for over a month now, which is unusual. I'm temporarily lowering the prices of ALL my CD's, at least $2, some are as low as $4.99, to make them more affordable for most of us who are feeling the pinch. This is the first and most likely only time I will have a special sale. The sale will last at least through the end of February. You can check out the prices and order through my website here:

The first official James D. Stark Music Video is now online. It's for "Hell (Anomy Remix)" which is featured on my latest release "Moonstruck" which you can order here."

Hell (Anomy Remix)

Time is running out to preorder the "Moonstruck" CD, and to receive a very limited edition (100) Moonstruck Poster, signed, and personalized upon request. I have the posters now and they turned out beautifully.

I'm very proud of the collection of remixes on this CD, and the originals, it's a very special album. The artwork is superb, worth owning with a physical copy, and the CD is packed with 72 minutes of music, significantly longer than any other release.

As you may know I'm an independent artist, not supported by a label. The production costs rest solely on myself, so your support is vital to my continuation. I haven't received many preorders at this point, in the past I've received many more such as with "Hell" and "Music of the Night". However this release I believe will provide greater listening enjoyment than any other.

Preorders costs $19.95, which basically breaks down to $14.95 for the CD, and $5 for the poster.

If you are a devoted fan, this is a opportunity you will not want to miss. Preorder below and in doing so know you are supporting a very hard working artist. You will have my personal gratitude, and a great CD and keepsake.

Well I had a great time at the Salt Lake City Dark Arts Festival. My performance went well and I received a very warm response. Saw some familiar faces and met some new ones. Some new photos from the performance are in my pictures section here. Thanks to everyone who came out, I trust you had a good time.

There is going to be a similar festival here in Portland featuring Music, Art, Performance, and Fashion this Fall, which I will be performing at. I'll post more details when they become available.
